How do you think a client that's down would send an alert to the Nagios server? While it's possible to submit passive checks (see the Nagios docs), they can't do everything. Maybe you need a distrbuted setup, with a monitoring server behind the firewall and a publicly-accessible box with the web interface. Maybe you don't need to monitor thing like if a host is up and passive checks from the monitored servers will work for you. Maybe you need to figure out what you want to monitor and ask more specific questions. In any case, it sounds like a good start would be to read the Nagios docs to get an idea of what you can and can't do with it. Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
